I figured so long as it is still listed and 7.1.3 install is available, that the patch would also work. Can I then use the 7.1.3 install file to update? Seems like when you run the full install there is also an update option.

I'm running 7.1.2 on a Debian server. I downloaded the 7.1.3 path, untarred it, went into the new patch dir, and issued the command: ./installPatch.sh

Did you read the Patch Release Notes before trying this? That patch is for the version it's listed with, not any other version and it's also not a full 'upgrade' and will not be applicable to any other version of Zimbra.

If you wish to do an upgrade then you download the specific release for your distribution and run that plus the patch for 7.1.3, please read the Release Notes and take a backup before you do the upgrade.

You should also update your forum profile with the output of the following command:

Nonetheless, I'm still a little confused. I've gone through release notes for 7.1.3 and for the 7.1.3 patch. The 7.1.3 release notes really only refer to upgrading from 5.x or 6.x, but not updating from 7.1.x. The release notes for the patch only say how to use the patch. Perhaps my confusion is in understanding the difference between the two packages.

Just to recap, I have 7.1.2 installed. Do I: a) just do an install from the full release of 7.1.3 to update it, and then apply the patch?; or b) should I just be able to apply the patch?

Sorry, if I missed the specific details somewhere, but I just don't see the specific instructions.
